		<description>from the unprotected list, was there an outside back we could be interested in (brandon prideau, CHI; wade barrett, craig weibel, HOU)? from the rumors that LAG were wanting to trade w/ seattle for drafted players...maybe we can do a little 3-way.  if LAG wants pablo, maybe seattle can draft someone for us on the list and ship him to LA for cash.  LA then ships that player to us for pablo.  kinda like killing 2 birds w/ one stone...that is if FCD was willing to trade away pablo.</description>

		<description>I would like for dallas to keep him if they give him a new contract.  He was one of their best players at the end of the season and could be a key piece to making the playoffs next year.  I say get rid of Saragosa and pay Richetti more, but it doesn&#039;t seem as though that will happen.</description>

		<description>I disagree with about his level since the beggining, I can remember games against Houston and NY, he played really good both of them.
But, I agree with you, if is not happy, you can not count on him. So, give him a new contract or let him go. Right?</description>

		<description>He can win defender of the year because the rest of the defenders did not play very well this year.  Davino was the worst regular starter on the team.  Blake Wagner was decent but should not be an MLS starter at this point in his career.  Drew Moor had a subpar season for him, and was hindered by playing next to Davino.  And Pitch did not play enough to warrant serious consideration.  

I never said Richetti is not a good player, but he was night and day between the beginning of the season and the end of the season.  I believe the difference was he thought he could earn a better contract through Hyndman.  Since that option does not appear likely I believe the team would be starting in a hole if they are counting on &quot;their best player&quot; to play to the same level as he did toward the end of the season.  He has shown before he will coast if he is not happy and that is a risk a team with a coach who expects a lot out of the center midfielders should not take.  

For a coach to be so big on team building and every player being on the same page can they really count on Richetti being happy and being the leader they want him to be?  I don&#039;t think so if they do not raise his salary.</description>

		<description>He was awful at the beginning of the year and many games looked as though he didn&#039;t want to be playing (LA Galaxy blowout) and was a major part the first coach was fired.  He did play very well at the end of the year but when he was upset with his contract at first he was bad for the team.  If he continues to play like he did at the end of the season he would be an asset but i don&#039;t think you can count on that.</description>

		<description>&quot;Richetti was very good towards the end of the season but early in the year he was awful. If he is complaining about his contract again the team will probably start in a hole if they are counting on him playing as he did at the end of the year.&quot;
If he was awful, how hell he won the defeder of the year award?
And how he can be the best player of the team for our coach? (that is not true, the best is Guarda)</description>

		<description>That is why i trust the market...if he is worth more he will, in the end, get paid what he is worth. Professional sports is like that...FCD can trap Kenny and Pablo inside of bad deals but when there contract is up they will get nothing for them.

Pay them what they are worth or sell them while they are worth something. FCD makes a choice. 

&quot;Deal is a deal&quot;? hey man, this aint college. Again, sell them or pay them but barking at them to honor their contract just means you get nothing when their time is up. 

Seriously, where do we find these people? i have never negotiated a sports contract but i know how this game works better then FCD chiefs. Yeesh</description>

		<description>it&#039;s unfortunate that pablo feels this way, but it&#039;s the nature of sports and what you feel like you&#039;re worth.

as mentioned, maybe they can move serioux to D-mid and move andre to RB since he&#039;s played there before.  fill the wings w/ sikora and avi if possible.  but, w/ their size, you may give up some on the defensive end.</description>
